this is an area that needs to be watched.
the watch tower corporation at the agent level gives this type of medical advice.. .
trial starts on charge of illegal medicine .
It's a nice article, thank you for sharing.
I don't see a connection between this and the Watchtower.
Quakery has been around for a long time, if indeed that's what this is. From what I can see, this woman lived just as long with alternative treatment as many women do with conventional treatment. So have many others. The people who really care the most about cases like this is mainstream medical practicioners, who don't want to lose a big chunk of income.
Bad situation all around.

>once again the situation of the world and it's callousness disheartens me.<
I and many of us here at JW.COM are part of 'that woRLd and its callousness'...
AND DON'T YOU FORGET IT!!!!!!!!!
the story takes up 2 pages in womans own magazine and has a photo of the j/w father who abused his daughter.. the story is entitled..... "church of shame".
and starts...... after being sexually abused for years by her father, alison cousins turned to her local church for help.
but she was turned away and told to keep quiet.

and a bttt...
YoYo idiot...go play in the traffic!!!!!
visit to romania and to the.
i realised i was going to have to radically re-evaluate my preconceptions about romania.
i spent much of the friday with rahela discussing further the background and beliefs of tfjws.
it looks to me like the women are still very suppressed...it looks like they have to wear head coverings in the presence of men PERIOD.
And I never got a straight story on their blood transfusion doctines/practice. grrrrr...
jehovah witness pastors has a sheep in their care arrested.. hi my name is david wiltshire and i have suffered horribly from the hand of my pastors.
because i know longer believe the jehovahs witnesses are the only true religion i was disfellowshipped from all jehovahs witnesses i cant even come over their houses any more, they refuse to return my greetings.. the worst torture that they have put on me is that my little grand daughter, who i used to give horsy back rides to cant even be allowed so visit with me for fear both she and her parents could be disfellowshipped.
the watchpower teaches that you cant fellowship with disfellowshipped persons, so they are good jehovah witnesses and obey the watchpower.. some say the jehovah witness religion is a mind control cult.
(((((((((DWilty))))))))))
55 year old woman gets disfellowshipped for having sex with a 15 year old boy.
isn't that child abuse?
does society in general see this different if the abuser is a woman?
YoYo:
Unfortunately, I was delaing with another untimely JW death at the moment. I sent flowers, made several phone calls and have been dealing with the media.
Don't worry, at the rate that JW's are beating, raping, and murdering one another, there WILL be one near you soon enough.
i never knew cos were apostles.
they really have gone over board with these jw references.
during a talk a brother referred to the men at the gatse of the cities of refuge as 'elders' to 'judge.
YoYo troll---read your own literature.
To openly disagree with a CO is to 'harbor private ideas'; 'engage in independant thinking'and 'go against God's organization and therefore God himself.'
They don't 'encourage' the brothers and sisters---they try to keep them in line, as we have seen with eywitness testimony.
Not that it works. Over (it is estimated) one million ex-jw's, and the fact that over 75% of JW children do not become Witnesses...support the Uncristian-ness of this CO and DO 'arrangement'.
Jesus said you can tell a tree by the fruit it bears.

from our witness neighbors: taxes not paid by witnesses cost city $10 million a year.

interesting...
i was thinking (it does happen)that we often hear rumors like so and so of the gb said this or that la la.. what we need is a double agent to work for us in getting info out of brooklyn.. ok i know the job wont be great or glamourous and would require long hours listening and agreeing to a lot of crap, saying yes rather a lot, knocking on peoples doors and all that.. but think how you could help the ex-jw cause.. any volunteers?.
and if anyone in bethal is reading this and knows the truth is tit , don't leave bethal , stay.. we need you there.get some info and documents out for us, and some tasty gossip, photos would help.
Speaking as someone still 'in' the organization, being 'in' is very harmful to one's emotional and mental well-being.
And seeing as how Jehovah's Witnesses are beating, raping and murdering one another at a probably unprecedented rate in their 120+ year history, I'm not so sure how PHYSICALLY safe it is either.
There's nothing going on in the Borganization that we need to know about that is worth this kind of risk to a person's health and life. "Get out of her!!" people...
i'm wondering if a portion (the part in brackets)of the following respone i got from a dub re: the controversial blood policy sounds eerily familiar to anyone else, like it does me?
i mean, i could swear i saw a post by someone not long ago almost verbatim, which if i could find the post would make it appear to be kinda like a canned "theocratic warfare" defense line or something:.
"1) what are your thoughts on the blood issues i brought up in my earlier email?
The issue is 'informed choice'.
If he hasn't taken the time to read something that could save/cost his life, then any medical decision he makes is not informed. A surgeon/hospital that accepts a consent form from someone like this is BEGGING to be sued.
And as I keep saying untill I'm blue in the face, these kinds of procedures---planned/elective surgery-aren't the ones that occur the massive (and ever more public)loss of life.
The tirck with these people is to get rid of the scriptures. The issue, just as this pperson rightly said, is not a matter of law. Push it around to discuss the expulsion/shunning issue. The BIBLE does NOT say it is an expulsion/shunning issue. Never mind the damned blood itself---you can SEE that's a lost cause.
The expulsion/shunning issue is the weak link. IT AIN'T RAGU--IT AIN'T IN THERE!!!! THAT'S the issue---and the real issue--to be discussed. THAT will get them thinking, but won't back them into a corner YOU can't get out of.
